Adoration: “Hallowed Be Thy Name”
Tim Keller | April 30, 1995
Overview
What does it mean to hallow? It’s a word virtually never used anymore in everyday English, but we don’t quite have an equivalent.
To hallow something means to treat it as sacred and ultimate. It means to make something your ultimate concern, to make it the most important thing, to make it the most crucial thing, to make it the supreme beauty, the supreme aim of your life. Jesus says this comes first, and I want to show you that praise and adoration is really what life is about.
Matthew 6 teaches us 1) the necessity of praise, 2) the primacy of praise, and 3) the anatomy of praise.
